Art like Mary Brilli: paintings, sculptures and creations

The Biennale Internazionale dell'Arte Contemporanea - Città di Firenze is one of the main art event of the last decade.
Founded in 1997, and taking place every two years, with the ambition of a "global convocation of artists in all their numbers and diversity", the success has since been tremendous.

In 2001 the United Nations recognized the Florence Biennale as an official partner in the program Dialogue Among Nations.
In his speech Kofi Annan said that: "artists have a special role to play in the global struggle for peace. At their best, artists speak not only to people, they speak for them. Art is a weapon against ignorance and hatred and an agent of public awareness. Art opens doors for learning, understanding, and peace among people and Nations."

The fifth edition, the so-called FB05, welcomed 768 artists from 74 different countries.
